Motion & Newton’s Laws State Correlation 2c & 2f

What is MOTION? All matter is in constant motion Motion is any change in position Relative Motion is used to recognize a change in position by using a point of reference An object changes positions if it moves relative to a reference point

Measuring Motion Distance is the total length of the route an object travels when it moves Displacement includes distance from the starting point to the stopping point and the direction traveled Ex. 40m 30m Distance = 40m Displacement = 40m east 40m Distance = 140m Displacement = 0m Distance = 70m Displacement = 50m northeast

Distance and Displacement

Speed Speed is the distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel the distance Formula: Speed = distance ÷ time (S=D/T) SI Unit: meters per second (m/s) Ex. In the 100m dash the fastest runner finished in 10s. S= 100m/10s= 10m/s 3 Types of Speed Average speed is found by dividing the total distance by the total time taken to reach that distance Speeds can vary from instant to instant Ex. Walking in a crowded hallway Instantaneous Speed is the speed of an object at a particular moment (clap sporadically) … . . .. … Constant Speed is when an object is moving at a steady rate throughout the entire distance (clap a steady beat) . . . .

Speed

Practice Problem Calculate the Average Speed. Round to the nearest 0.1m/s A swimmer swam 100m in 56s. Answer: S=100m/56s 1.8m/s Hw wksht p27 ch21 sec1 1-8only

Graphing Motion Motion can be graphed on a distance-time graph Time on the horizontal axis Distance on the vertical axis The steeper the line on a distance-time graph, the greater the speed A horizontal line means no change in position, which makes the speed “zero” at anytime on the graph

Example Graph Which student is moving fastest? Which student has no motion?

Velocity Velocity is the speed of an object and the direction of its motion. Unit is same as speed, but includes direction 10km/h east Example: A hiker needs to know how far away the camp is & in what direction to determine the necessary velocity to get back to camp before nightfall

Velocity

Acceleration Acceleration occurs when an object changes its motion (velocity changes) Speed up - 50m/h to 60m/h (positive) Slow down – 45m/h to 40m/h (negative) Acceleration is in the opposite direction of the motion Change in direction – north to east Basket ball thrown from the free-throw line Can you think of examples of situations that have positive or negative acceleration?

Acceleration

Newton’s Laws of Motion State correlation 2f

What is a Force? Force is defined as a push or a pull Ex. Pushing a grocery cart or pulling a wagon Net force is the combination of all forces acting on an object at the same time. Ex. Identify all the forces acting on a paper clip, sitting on a table, near a magnet.

Balanced verses Unbalance Balanced forces occur when two or more forces exerted on an object cancel each other out causing no change in motion (no acceleration) Ex. Lean back to back with a partner with no motion or hold a book in your hand very still Unbalanced forces occur when the combined forces acting on an object do not cancel each other out causing a change in motion (acceleration) Ex. Push a chair with wheels or when someone wins tug-a-war Show a balance with the same items in both pans & then more of the item in one pan than the other

Decide if the situation is Balanced or Unbalanced Push a box till it moves Pedal a bike at a constant speed Apply brakes to a bike in order to pop a wheelie Push a car that never moves Two people push a box in opposite directions causing the box to go nowhere Two people push a box in opposite directions causing the box to slide slightly to the right.

Newton’s 1st Law of Motion 2 parts An object will remain at rest until an unbalanced force is applied to the object Ex. Skateboard pushed in motion An object in motion will remain in motion at a constant rate until an unbalanced force is applied to the object Ex. Moon moves in a consistent pattern Known as the “law of inertia” Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist change in its motion Ex. Applying breaks in a car and your body goes forward

Newton’s First Law of Motion

Friction Friction is a force that resists sliding between two touching surfaces or through air or water. Friction slows down an object’s motion. Friction produces heat and wears on objects

Friction Rubbing your hands together, you can feel a force between your hands.

Friction Friction is always present when two surfaces of two objects slide past each other.

Static Friction Keeps an object at rest from moving on a surface when force is applied to the object.

Sliding Friction Sliding friction occurs when two surfaces slide past each other.

Rolling Friction A car or truck stuck in the mud spins its wheels but doesn’t move. Rolling friction makes a wheel roll forward or backward. A car stuck in the mud doesn’t have enough rolling friction to keep the wheels from slipping.

Air Resistance When molecules in air collide with the forward-moving surface of an object, slowing its motion. Resistance is less for a narrow, pointed object than for a large, flat object.

Newton’s 2nd Law Newton’s second law of motion connects force, acceleration, and mass an object acted on by a force will accelerate in the direction of the force acceleration equals net force divided by mass. Ex. An empty skateboard verses a person standing on a skateboard: Which one will you have to push harder to go the same distance? Formula: (a = fnet ÷ m) or (fnet = m x a) Forces are measured in Newtons (N) 1N = 1kg x 1m/s2

Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion

Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion

Practice Newton’s 2nd law Suppose you pull a 10kg sled so that the net force on the sled is 5N. What is the acceleration of the sled? A = 5N ÷ 10kg = 0.5m/s2 You throw a baseball with a mass of 10kg so it has an acceleration of 40m/s2. How much force did you exert on the baseball? Answer: 400N Making a connection: Explain the connection between motion, 1st law, & 2nd law. Have students create their own example problem and trade with a partner to solve.

Newton’s 3rd Law Newton’s third law of motion states that forces always act in equal but opposite pairs called action/reaction forces for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Bounce a ball on the ground or playing pool Action-reaction forces are always the same size but are in opposite directions and act on different objects. When the mass of one object is considerably larger than the mass of another object, the action-reaction force is not noticeable. When you push a wall or walk on the earth.

Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion

Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion

Action/Reaction Forces When one object exerts a force on another object the 2nd object exerts the same size force on the 1st object Forces act on different objects, so they do not cancel each other out

Action/ Reaction Examples Underline the object Wings push air down & back Hands push water back Foot pushes down and back on earth Rocket engine pushed gas molecules downward Reaction Air pushes wings up and forward Water pushes swimmer forward Earth pushes foot up &forward Gas molecules push rocket up Have students underline the different objects the forces act on Why does the reaction not always appear to be the same? The greater the mass the greater the inertia

Which law? Using an oar to move a canoe Pushing a swing with more force to move your big brother than you did with your little sister A rock is sitting on a hill until you push it causing it to roll Quiz 3rd 2nd 1st
